Fabrica de Fideos Rivoli, S.A.,
Appellant,
vs.
Famex Investments Limited,
Appellee.
An Appeal from a non-final order from the Circuit Court for Miami-Dade
County, Rodney Smith, Judge.
Dorta Law, and Matias R. Dorta, for appellant.
Jones & Adams, P.A., and Matthew L. Jones, for appellee.
Before LAGOA, SCALES and LUCK, JJ.
PER CURIAM.
Fabrica de Fideos Rivoli, S.A., the defendant below, appeals a non-final
order denying its motion to dismiss the instant action for lack of personal
jurisdiction. Concluding that the trial court correctly applied the two-prong test for
determining whether personal jurisdiction may be exercised over a nonresident
defendant, we affirm. See Venetian Salami Co. v. Parthenais,
554 So. 2d 499, 502
(Fla. 1989) (providing that personal jurisdiction over a nonresident defendant
exists where: (1) the complaint alleges sufficient jurisdictional facts to satisfy
Florida’s long-arm statute, section 48.193 of the Florida Statutes; and (2) the
nonresident defendant has sufficient minimum contacts with Florida to satisfy
constitutional due process concerns).
Affirmed.
